With no alias, the OS is free to number the GPIO chips arbitrarily, such
as in probe order, which is what Linux kernel's rockchip_gpio_probe() does
if its of_alias_get_id(np, "gpio") fails.

This results in GPIO chip numbers arbitrarily shuffled in userspace,
causing confusion and pain.

Set gpioN aliases in the SoC .dtsi, just like other SoC versions do.
